there found shavings and the presence

callers and Manufacturers of Boots

Evidence of thrift and prosperity is
her mercantile prosperity, for her
enterprising business men and elegant
stores and complete stocks of goods.
Among these merchants are Messrs.
Hunstable & Moore, Up Elm street.
They are engaged at the present in
remodeling the interior and embelish-
ing the front of their store. The walls
and ceiling are beautifully papered
with elegant designs; the painting of
the shelving and woodwork is'done in
mahogany, trimmed in ebony and
gold, which, comb ned with the color
of the walls and ceiling, present hand
some appearance, indeed. The floor is
to be painted granite, and sofas are
to be placed in the center Of the room
for the ladies convenience and comfort.
In the rear of the store room is the
office, and back of this is the cutting
room and work shop where are num-
Der of workmen engaged in turning
out boots and shoes at rapid rate.
The quality of the work is excellent,
for none but first class workmen are
employed. The establishment from
front to rear embraces everything that
goes toward making up a first class
house. The increase of busis
ness has been such as to require all
these improvements. The stock which
they carry is the best made, latest de-
signs, and embrace as great variety
as can be found anywhere. Remem-

From Palestine to Austin on
Foot,

A Frenchman, whose name the re-
porter did not learn, passed through
the city yesterday on the tramp from
Palestine to Austin. The old man
had small travelling bag swung
across one shoulder and a double
barrelled shotgun over the other,
smiling and bowling as he trudged
along. This man was very wealthy
before the war. He is no beggar
now by any means. He lives in his
own house in Henderson county, and
besides comfortable living he has
$5,OO0,OOO in bonds in his house, so
it is reliably reported, but, unfor-
tunately for the Frenchman, this
money is in Confederate bonds. The
old man considers himself too poor to
ride IL it costs anything, therefore he
walks.

Marbled Beef.

Animals which have not been literally
fed while young and growing will never
yield the same quantity of marbed flesh,
no matter how much care may be taken
to fatten them when grown, as those
which have been well fed from the be
ginning. In short, to produce the best
quality Of beef, the cellular tissues of the
muscle must he developed along with the
growth Of the animal by abundant food
The characteristics Of high quality Of
beef are briefly as follows If lean, the
surface of the beef is of uniform redness
when cut across the grain; but fat de-
posted within the muscle will be indi-
Gated by whitsh colOred points which are
layers Of fat around and among the
bundles of muscular librcs These indi-
cations are more OF less strongly marked
according t. the amount Of fat deposited.
and when the amount is considerable the
lean meat looks as if ovcrlaid with n net
work of fat. Meat thus streaked with
fat is termed marbled.

Statistician Dodge, in his report on ag-
ricultural statistics, makes il appear
that the farm area of the United States
has nearly doubled in thirty years, in
creasing from 293, $50, GA to $50, 0S1 ,S3j
acres. During the first ten years the tax
ing up of government lands in the west
and south and the state lands of Texas
was active. The most fertile areas, little
encroached upon in the newer settle
ments, were taken possession of with a
certainty of appreciation in value that
added intensity to the pursuit of homes
obtainable at insignificant prices. The
absolutely free homestead had not at that
time been guaranteed by law. In the next
decade the disturbing element of the civil
war prevented aggregate increase, the
states within the theatre of actual warfare
declining in area, some farms being aban-
doned and hence not counted as farms.
At the same time many of the western
states showed a considerable increase.
Kansas, for instance. with LIS, 400 acres
in 1860 had 1856, so in 1870
Between 1870 and 1880 the new lands

PRODUCTS. unimproVed land
Notwithstanding the new land taken up,
has been constantly decreasing. 1t was
61.5 per cent in 1850, 500 in 1860, 50. :
in 1870 and 49, in 1850.
According to the same authority the in
crease of twenty years in the values of
products of American agriculture has
been far greater than the increase in popu-
lation. Quantities have enormously in
creased and values have changed, some
being lower and some higher than in 1860.
The principal products are shown in the
accompanying diagram in the order of
their prominence. Meat, which represents
ranch grass or pasturage, is first, followed
by corn, wheat, hay, dairy products, cot
ton, poultry products, etc. Corn stood
first in 1860 because the grains of the
western half of the continent were I'M
utilized, and meat production east of the
Mississippi has assumed greatly enlarged
proportions. a part of the corn, about
half, and Il small part of the hay, are du-
plicated in the value of meats. The dairy
products are principally from pasturage,
and therefore do not duplicate extensively
values of other items
The products represented in the diagram
and the proportion Of each in the two
periods are given in millions of dollars. as

reports the result: There was gained a
